[Majestic]

Just Blaze’s version was better, but Hov was dropping gems

Do you have a link to this?

Such a classic song The amount of creativity needed to make a track like this.

 

[Flight]

My favorite Hov song ever. & a top 5 Neptunes beat..

 

[Controversy]

I truly believe this is the preeminent record in Jigga's illustrious career

Cinematic production, coke rhymes, effortless flow



This song captures the essence of him as a rapper

 

[Heavy_Handz]

Most underrated Pharrell joint of all-time.
Classic

I still prefer Pharrell's version, but Just Blaze's version is a classic too IMO

 

[I love Latina women]

Most underrated Pharrell joint of all-time.

It was produced by both Pharrell and Chad

To 10 hov track for me. Couldn’t believe it when he performed it at the 4:44 tour

 

[the cac mamba]

i always hated this fukkin song that beat/sample does NOT flow right, and jay sounds like hes trying too hard to make it into some epic, cinematic track

and now that ross has done it better so many times, it just sounds like poor man's maybach music

Sounds nothing like anything from the "Maybach Music" series.

Been a while since I revisited "Allure". I played that song so much, it inspired a poem I wrote in high school and I used "Allure" as the title. Got an A on the assignment.
